What exactly do you mean? Can you post screenshots?

I’m operating a Sepolia Faucet that implements several drain prevention measures, including IP checks. However, we’re facing a significant issue with users who bypass these policies by frequently changing their IP ranges. The situation is exacerbated with the allowance of IPv6, as we’re observing an increase in suspicious and draining activities from users switching to IPv6 addresses. Simply blocking IPv6 would significantly enhance security in ways that are not achievable through other methods.

You can do so via the API - Cloudflare API Documentation

Thank you for the quick response,
Is this option only available for Enterprise subscriptions?

Cloudflare changed that a few times, but the API call should work for all plans. Does it not?

I’ll give that a try shortly and will let you know. thank you very much for the instructions.

I think that was the solution ! Thank you very much for the quick solution. Is there anything else that I should change or pay attention to?

Should be working now.
